Peppermint Bristlenose

Do the females also have bristles?

They do to a certain extent, very small though normally and only in older ages.
Same as human women and moustaches, all grannies seem to have one.

If your referring to L183 white seam which is lately increasing named as a peppermint BN then yes both sexes have bristles. The females will develop them around the top lip whereas males will have bristles develop up the snout/nose. It isn't just age in females they will develop them, some just develop sooner than others. Ive had 183 females develop as soon as 6 months old, some were over 12 months before they developed any.
